What Can I Expect

Creative Glass in Bristol - design your own stained glass piece of art! The one-day stained glass course is run by a team of talented and experienced crafts people at the renowned Guild in Bristol. In fact it is the number one teaching centre for creative glass in the country!

Since the Guild began in 1979, it has been at the cutting edge of glass in the UK. With all this skill and talent around, you are sure to be inspired to create your very own design during this comprehensive and hands-on course in the outskirts of Bristol.

Under expert supervision from professional artists, you will be guided through each stage of production. You will be shown how to cut and shape, before using a soldering iron to solder, cement and polish the lead into place.

Workshops go into lots of detail and provide plenty of practical sessions, so you can improve your technique, as well as learning about the history of stained glass production and its use. With a maximum of eight students, you can be sure of lots of individual attention, with help from one of the resident experts for any technical questions.

By the end of this stained glass course in Bristol, you will have completed your very own crafted mirror. These creative glass products make the ideal gift for a loved one, but after all the work you've put in, you may like your glass creation too much to give away!

All materials, glass, lead, solder and tools for your day of getting creative with glass are provided, along with a delicious light lunch and refreshments. Make sure you take time to browse the Guild shop, where you will find all the creative glass materials you need to continue your satisfying new hobby at home.

No artistic or creative experience in glass design is necessary for this creative glass school in Bristol...just bring along yourself and your enthusiasm.
